Be@Home - Decor and Design

A veranda is an open-roofed gallery or porch, and the word comes from India, where it was first used to describe an innovative new type of architecture that combined elements of the East and the West. So what does a veranda have to do with bedding? More than you might think.

When it comes to bedding verandas, the thought that comes to mind is the Veranda bedding set from Crate and Barrel. This lively set of sheets, pillows, and comforters comes in a variety of vibrant colors and is made from 100% cotton, with a 300-ply thread count. Featuring an attractive checkerbox design, the Veranda bedding set is the perfect solution for spicing up the bedroom.

If you’d rather ditch the modern look, and go for something a little more classical, then the Veranda collection from Croscill will definitely delight you. With a quilt like comforter and soft, golden sheets, the Veranda collection is a luxurious bed set. Featuring an elegant look, with delicate embroidery and soft ropes and tassels, the Veranda bedding set conjures up images of times gone by, and is the perfect way to add a touch of nostalgia to your bedroom.

Whatever style of bedding veranda you choose to go for, you’re sure to be delighted with the comfort and attractiveness of these two sets. It’s not quite a covered porch, but it’ll provide you with nights of comfortable sleep for months to come.
